The Southern Way
Here we see a Southern Railway SD40-2 in charge of a westbound train at MP 236, near Marengo, Indiana. This is Southern’s line between Louisville and St. Louis.
The locomotive in the lead is scarcely one year old when this image was made; the Southern Railway had a penchant for running its locomotives long-hood forward.
